Just got chastised by teenage daughter for playing music too loud as I make her breakfast. She called it loud, rachety jazz. It’s 21st century schizoid man by King Crimson. Never would have called it jazz, but ok?

But His Emails...
Before he was elected in 2016, Donald Trump bragged about grabbing women by the pu**y and barging into rooms of partially dressed young pageant contestants.

My unreasonable take is that I am glad the children of politicians have spent their life around it and feel compelled to serve, but I am absolutely fucking finished with dynastic politics and would like to see an immediate end.

Fuck Chuck. Best case he is horrible at his job. But I think not. He approved this, or surrendered to it. There is a reason these milquetoast shitwits are making the tv rounds instead of dem leaders roundly dressing them down for their capitulation.

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.
Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

Tonight’s Senate vote on the federal government shutdown should have been a time for strength.
Instead we saw capitulation and a betrayal of working Americans.
The American people need more from their leaders.

People were donating to food banks in communities across the country. Many SNAP recipients who were struggling felt the momentum. They too need healthcare & many didn't want us to cave. 7M of us didn't march to cave. We didn't win every election last week to cave. Shame on the cavers. Vote them out.

Jeanne Shaheen speaking right now. She's essentially saying they're taking the best deal possible, and she's hopeful for the ACA subsidies. She sounds very pollyannaish, naive, and ignorant of the current climate. Sorry, New Hampshire...your state reps are among those who have let us all down.

It shows Schumer no longer has the caucus.
It doesn't actually matter if Chuck Schumer votes for this or not.
If he can't keep his caucus unified to protect healthcare for over 10 million Americans, he should resign as leader.

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"
